- Temporary passports are not accepted by some countries. It is the responsibility of the traveler to inquire with the countries to be visited before applying for a temporary passport. The Embassy/Consulate accepts no liability in this regard.
- Please write your email address on the upper right hand corner of the application form to receive updates on the status of your application.
- Passport Applications: You may hold on to your current passport while your new passport is being processed. For New York applicants: At least four (4) months after lodging your application, please check the list of passports ready for release. If your name appears on the list, please forward your current passport to the Consulate in New York for cancellation. Cancelled passports with valid visas will be returned to applicants together with their respective new passports.
